Daniel Bisogno Dies: ‘Ventaneando’ Co-Host & TV Azteca Star Was 51

Daniel Bisogno, best known as one of the co-hosts of entertainment newsmagazine Ventaneando, has died. He was 51.

“It is with deepest sadness that we regret to report news we never wanted to give: our beloved Daniel Bisogno has just passed away due to complications he suffered after the liver transplant he underwent last September,” read a statement on Ventaneando’s Instagram profile.

Bisogno had been hospitalized, and his brother visited the TV Azteca show on February 12 where he said that his health was “very delicate.”

Celebrating the show’s 29th anniversary, Bisogno called the show from the hospital where he remained hopeful of returning to co-host with the rest of his colleagues.

“These 29 years have been wonderful in life,” he said. “The best thing is a life that has given me everything, both good and bad, and everything has been a great experience for the most part. Absolute happiness. I love you with all my heart.”

Bisogno joined Ventaneando in 1997, a year after the show started, and quickly made a name for himself due to his sharp tongue and quick wit.

The Mexican TV personality was not only co-hosting Ventaneando, he was also starring in the musical Lagunilla, Mi Barrio.
